Yesterday I was faced with one of my least favourite things -an 8 hour flight from Dubai back home to UK. Its an inevitable fact of expat life that as I more or less split my time between UAE and UK its something I have to do pretty regularly.
I used to be a very nervous flyer until one day as I posted previously I decided that "I can handle it" but its still not my favourite way to spend a day
Yesterday as I was queuing up to board the flight it amused me as always, that the flight staff always greet you at the door and tell you to turn right. Of course if we were going to turn left into the hallowed area of business and first class we wouldn't be stood there queuing anyway would we?
As I waited I started to wonder what it would be like just to ask if there was any chance that I could turn left for a change and still "in the comfy seats". I made up my mind that I would ask the question and imagined what it would be like to enjoy the space and comfort.
Actually when I reached the front of the queue I didn't manage to catch the eye of an attendant, so dutifully went to take my rightful place in economy - consoling myself that at least by booking online, I had managed by to secure a bulkhead seat with plenty of legroom. I had a pleasant chat with my neighbouring passengers and was perfectly content.
All went well, we took off and I settled down to enjoy a drink and was about half an hour into enjoying a film I had wanted to see for a while, when I was approached by a stewardess. Apparently they wanted my bulkhead seat for a lady travelling with an infant who could then make use of a travel cot - I thought she was just asking if I would move, but no - they actually wanted to upgrade me to business class!!
I still cant believe that it really happened - it has never happened to me before, and it just seemed such a coincidence that I had, less than an hour before, been imagining just such a scenario. I have heard before about the law of attraction - and you can bet your life that I will be studying it more from now on - will let you know what I find out.
And the rest of the flight? - oh yes it was as wonderful as I had imagined it would be - space, a reclining seat/bed, wonderful food served on china and wine in a glass rather than a plastic beaker. Thanks to Emirates, the flight attendant and the law of attraction who jointly made it happen.
